suggestion for tabbs in the admin interface

Post by mbvdk »

There is a little thing that I miss in the admin interface, and that is the ability to return to a spesific tab, after pressing a link on a tabbed interface. One example is when adding categories to the News module: When I press add on the Add Category screen the new category is added and I'm redirected back to the Articles tab of the news module, not the category tab, as would be logical.

After looking into the code, I have concluded that this cannot be done with the current Redirect() function. I'm not sure exactly how to acomplish this, but on standard html-pages it is done by adding a to the tabs, and then apending #tabid to the filename.

I think a redirect method with a params() argument is checked into SVN (I already mentioned this issue to wishy). So if you get a nitely tarball, or the new beta it should be there.
